Can someone explain how this mining event is supposed to work? Like I understand Robot Data Fragments need to be submitted to RDI representative but not sure how they are implementing it in loot? Is it hunting loot from instances or SOOTO from mining or something else?

"As an extra bonus, the RDI reports that new Robot Data Fragments have been salvaged by the Data Interceptor and can be found in robot loot. The RDI deem these Data Fragments as crucial to their ongoing research and are willing to trade them for previously classified Mining Missions. These Mining Missions offer a chance to uncover hidden Robot Cache Strongboxes. The Robot Cache Strongboxes in turn are known to contain schematics for valuable high-end mining tools, among other items."

So hunting in order to do mining missions?

How about we just drop probes for the Robot Data Fragments and make it a actual mining event and skip the hunting? Seem like the hunters get the mining missions while the miners wait for the hunters to sell them the mining gear.

I do hope the text is just not written clearly accidentally suggesting the fragments will be dropped in hunting loot (i.e. robot loot) instead of the fragments being found while mining. Otherwise, it’s not a mining event, just hunting. I know I was planning to deposit if it was a mining event, but I wouldn’t ever do that for hunting.

Wait so fragments aren't found while mining? Can't they just make it like FEN tokens where you get it in loot so you just get fragments with your mining claim. How is it a mining event then if you get fragments hunting? That would be very disappointing.

I hope you are right a lot of people were excited by the idea of having a Mining event but now we wait to see if we do actually get one. I can't imagine they intended it like this. It has to be a mistake or....... you know...
